A government most voters rejected just handed millions to venues now licensed as “adult entertainment clubs.”
That is what happens when one party wins unchecked power with 40% of the vote.
If you want accountability, it is time for proportional representation.

In my lifetime, I have only heard one Canadian city described as a war zone — Ottawa in 2022. Pierre Poillievre brought donuts to those who occupied our capital and supported those who sought to bring down our democratically elected government. He is the rotten root of it all.

Blanket in-office mandates for workers who CAN work remotely are inefficient and expensive. A smart remote work policy, on the other hand, reduces costs, boosts productivity, and gives workers real work-life balance.
But wasting taxpayer money is what Doug Ford does best. 💆🏼🍻

I'm regularly asked what I do as a City Councillor and how it compares to the work done by MPs, MPPs, School Board Trustees, and the Chief of Police - and how to get in touch with all of these folks. My staff and I developed this resource for Hamilton, which we hope will help. #HamOnt

Does CTV work for the Poilievre campaign? Or are they just spineless hypocrites?
Rachel Gilmore's fact-checking segment on CTV was cancelled this week because of Conservative hate sparked by the Poilievre team on Twitter.
